Men's novels are about men. Women's novels are about men, too, but from
a different point of view. You can have a men's novel with no women in
it except possibly the landlady or the horse, but you can't have a women's
novel with no men in it. Sometimes men put women in men's novels but
leave out some of the parts: the heads, for instance, or the hands.
Women's novels leave out parts of men as well. Sometimes it's the stretch
between the belly button and the knees, sometimes it's the sense of
humour. It's hard to have a sense of humour in a clock, in a high wind,
on a moor.

Women do not usually write novels of the type favored by men, but men are
known to write novels of the type favored by women. Some people find this
odd.
